In the heart of downtown Austin, where the eclectic vibes of creativity and culture converge, there exists a unique haven known as "Retail Therapy". It's not just your typical cocktail lounge; it's a sanctuary for those who appreciate the finer things in life: fashion, retail, and, of course, exquisitely crafted cocktails made from all-natural, fresh ingredients.

As you step through the hidden door of Retail Therapy, you're greeted by the chic ambiance of a boutique, where iconic images mingle seamlessly with designer brands immersed by bottles of artisanal spirits and jars of freshly picked herbs and fruits.

The brainchild of owners Eric Foster, Ryan Smith and Glenn Williams, fashion enthusiasts with an unquenchable thirst for mixology, Retail Therapy is a testament to their passion for blending the worlds of style and flavor. Behind the sleek, marble-topped bar, the ownership group and their team of mixologists lead by General Manager Jeramy Campbell meticulously craft each cocktail with the precision of a seasoned tailor, weaving together ingredients like threads of silk to create unforgettable experiences.

The lounge itself is a visual feast, with walls adorned in bold, geometric patterns reminiscent of the latest runway trends. Vintage mannequins have been repurposed into wall art, their painted surfaces reflecting the glow of backlit LED wall boxes that cast a warm, inviting ambiance curated by interior designer Jalicia Carter.

The menu at Retail Therapy reflects the teams creative vision, featuring cocktails inspired by iconic fashion trends and designers. The "Satine" combines premium vodka with a Passion Fruit Puree, Tempus Fugit Creme de Cacao, Lazzaroni Amoretto, Allspice Dram, and topped with a Flaming Absinthe-Soaked Sugar Cube sensory experience.

As the evening unfolds and the cocktails flow freely, Retail Therapy becomes more than just a lounge; it's a runway where the bold and the beautiful come to see and be seen. Fashionistas mingle with cocktail connoisseurs, swapping stories of style and sipping on libations that are as fashionable as they are flavorful.

In the world of Retail Therapy, every cocktail is a work of art, every sip a statement of style. It's a place where the boundaries between fashion and flavor blur, and where the pursuit of perfection is as timeless as the classics that adorn its shelves.
